I waited some time to see 300 but it really wasn't worth the wait. The basic plot is this: The Spartan's Glaswegian king kicks some Persians into a conveniently placed bottomless pit. The Spartans then go to the "hot gates" to have a fight against the advice of a semi-naked chick, Spartans then have another fight, then another, then another, then another, then another then the Spartans die. The end. Being a comic book conversion it's done with the usual over the top violence and screwed up ugly monsters, like ogres with moobs and kitchen utensils for hands etc. The dialogue is pretty awful/Americanized and the Spartans keep banging on about fighting for Greece even though it didn't exist at the time.

Gerard Butler is especially awful but maybe that's just because I'm Glaswegian as I kept expecting him to shout "ho' you ya bam, am pure gonnae kick yer heid in" and "run, it's the polis" THIS IS SPARTA! NO IT'S NAW, IT'S PURE S***E BTW! (insert Glasgow kiss)

I first heard about this film 6 years ago. One of my friends told me about how good it was and how he used to own a VHS copy but that it sadly went missing. That was 6 years ago... 6 years later he found a copy on ebay. I try to avoid using clichés but it really *was* worth the wait! I haven't laughed so much in all those 6 years!

I've seen a lot of funny bad movies in my time, but this is definitely the one that stands out above the rest! In fact it's so good that it's made me write my very first IMDb review! Everything about this movie, the acting, the plot, the continuity...it's just so good, i mean bad, or do i mean good? This film deserves repeated viewings, i'm going to play it to all my friends as it should be compulsory viewing for all! Try and track down a copy!
